Just a comment on this: as long as the "n DD rule" has n >= 1, I believe
we can delegate the check to the DD in question: he is already a trusted
member of the Debian Project, I believe we should trust her for
evaluating the other criteria.

That said, I've already mentioned that "1 DD + size >= k" is the way we
should go, and I don't think we need any more complex criteria than
that. (As a corollary of the previous paragraph, I'm fine trusting the
DD in question to certify the company size.)


I entirely agree with all other points of your mail.


Cheers.
